St. Paddy's recipe roundup!

I'm not usually one to cook a giant roast, I think it's because I live alone and that much meat feels very much like overkill (ha!). But I did cook a corned beef in my crock pot overnight to enjoy this evening for St. Patrick's Day. I mean, it's not every day we celebrate a man who was not Irish for driving nonexistent snakes from Ireland. I'm practically required to eat corned beef and cabbage.

I used Martha Stewart's recipe to make my corned beef, and when I get home I will cook the cabbage to her instruction...or I may go rogue. This recipe for roasted cabbage with lemon from Kalyn's Kitchen looks amazing and might bring a smokiness to the meal (and some much needed acidity).
